What is a good present for the white elephant game?

I am playing it tomorrow with my entire family and I still haven't got a gift.

This may sound like a silly gift idea, but the game Twister. Your family sounds like they are a fun group, what's more fun than watching members of your family in strange positions after eating a big holiday meal and no one can move! There is no age limit, young or old. You can start a game after gifts are all exchanged. Or, if they're not very mobile, another game where a lot of people can play. I don't know the name of the game where you draw the clues, like charades.(?) You can start a new holiday tradition.

A VHS Rewinder (Kinyo brand): large, grey, unwieldy, ugly, & only $1 @ the Good Will Store!! My wife found it and gave it away at her company's Holiday Luncheon where they proceeded to steal each others' gifts; of course, NO one wanted THIS one!! (Unfortunately, her new BFF got stuck w/it--she's bringing it back nxt yr!)! However, as no one else really "got" the concept of a "White Elephant" gift giving & trading/stealing 'Event' --the others brought 'nice' gifts... How quaint?! [Boing-oing-oing!!] My idea: Next year--> Put the proper definition of a "White Elephant" into the Invitations; that way, it WILL be more fun. Anyhoo, my lovely wife stole her way to the BEST gift brought by someone {e.g., Bailey's coffee liquere & a set of nice glasses}!! So there... Ha!!

Try getting a nice themed mug, filling it with a couple of biscotti, candies, and a couple packets of instant cocoa, bags of tea, or a Starbucks gift card.
